HAPPY LABOR DAY !!!!
And welcome all Coloradoans!!!!
Thank you for such a warm welcome to the Rocky Mountain
State! What a wonderful journey August has been. Even traveling back from
these two shows (which both went quite well!), kept me ever mystified by the
world around me. I look forward to spending some more time up there next
year. "green apple"
(right) was the hit of both shows, and sold in Vail! "red apple" sold
in Telluride, and "pear" and "peach"
both got quite a bit of attention as well. "music store I" was also well
received at both shows! A note of humorous triviality: I've raved about how well my art
was received in Texas, and two of my bigger sales in Colorado were to
people from Texas! :-) In fact, I'm delivering one in Houston next month
when I go there for the Bayou City Art Festival!
For now, I am excited about the preparations to show
here at our very own "Art In The Park" in Sierra Vista! This is the largest
outdoor art show in Arizona, filling up our city park on October 7th & 8th.
I will have a MONSTER booth at 15' wide by 20' deep. In the mean time, I
have been quite occupied with my biggest piece of art to date (see below).
While this particular manifestation of "green apple" is now sold (as is the red one), I will be replacing both apples with new versions in order to keep it a full set. I've also got some 'veggies' to tinker with (in a different theme) once I've completed two commissions I'm in the middle of. Go to www.restevensart.com to see more!
It is ever-evolving, but this is a sketch of my new house project in one of it's more recent manifestations. This is the northern exposure, hence the lack-o-windows. I'm looking at extending the entryway a bit, but you get the idea. It's inspired by the architecture of the Inca's and Aztecs! Had film-making not taken the forefront, architecture would have been my path of choice and I'm greatly enjoying the process of designing my own humble abode.
